The correct treatment for every stain
Do not allow stains to dry. Remove any solid residues first. Sort the items of laundry as usual
and load the washing machine. Select a type of stain (cannot be combined).
ʑ
There are a total of 16 different stains to choose from. The washing machine tailors the
washing temperature, drum movement and soaking time to the type of stain. Hot or cold
water, gentle or intensive washing control (thanks to the new drum structure) and a long or
short soaking time ensure that the wash programme runs specifically according to the type
of stain.
ʑ
A stain type can be added to each programme via the menu buttons/change buttons.
ʑ
This results in optimum stain treatment without the use of additional special detergents.

studies.
